Unable to perform well under pressure during knockout stages is what let them down on the previous occasions. Fans hope their favorite team will shrug off their shortcomings and overcome them to win it this time.

SWOT Analysis of Team India

However, the home nation – India, has various strengths and weaknesses going into the tournament. Let’s analyze them briefly:

• Strength – Covering all three departments, India remains one of the strongest suits in batting, bowling, and fielding. They have a powerful batting order covered by a potent bowling attack and have impressive all-rounders to win matches. They strangle the opponents during the middle phases of the game without giving away too many runs while bowling and the ability to rotate strikes. At the same time, batting makes the scoreboard even more interesting.

• Weakness – With a seaming pitch against swinging balls, team India has always been vulnerable. The top-order batting against the left-arm pacers faces considerable discomfort, and they tend to lose their wickets in quick succession, which forces them to play their game on the back foot. In bowling, they find it tough to clean off the tail-enders where the opponents wag off for a while, adding pressure to the lateral half of the match. 

• Opportunities – Scoring big in the initial powerplay phase and targeting the weaker link of the opponent’s bowling attack gives them maximum boost while playing in the tournament. The big stalwarts of the team have also stepped up during the crunch situations in the match, which has also elevated the team’s morale to a larger extent. There are individual match-winners in this Indian side who can score big with the bat and rattle down opponents with the ball.

• Threat – The major threat would be the top-order teams with a good left-arm attack (both pace & spin) have posted a threat to this Indian lineup. Although they have safely negotiated with Australia & Pakistan by topping them, countries like South Africa, New Zealand, and England would still be itching to go against them.

On the back of consecutive series losses to South Africa & India in the bilateral series, Australia is one of the strong contenders to triumph in the World Cup edition. England and South Africa have the greatest run so far with strong batting lineups and have the chance of winning the cup.

There are other black horses in the tournament. Teams like New Zealand and Pakistan can spring up a surprise in the event if they go about and win the tournament. Other teams like Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Afghanistan, and the Netherlands can topple the big teams at any given time, considering how well they perform on that particular day.

Spanning over 1.5 months across 10 different venues, the event will have its penultimate knockout stages at Mumbai and Kolkatta on the 15th & 16th of November. The highly anticipated Final will be hosted in the World’s biggest stadium at Ahmedabad on 19th November. To find the cricket latest news in and around you, visit https://jeetbuzznews.com/.
